“I was fortunate to attend a class with Clint this fall. It was an experience of a lifetime.
I had no knowledge of boat construction. He really helped everyone there gain confidence. I plan on returning next year.”

“For me, the greatest takeaway from the class is the confidence in myself to make my project successful. Having helped build a boat under your guidance was a great experience. I loved the shop, felt really comfortable moving around, felt like I was working in a friends space. For Dave and I your teaching style was excellent. You gave us the information needed, then let us work. We were able to figure things out for ourselves, but you were still always willing to come guide us as needed. ”
It is always a joy for me to hear how much students learn and take away from their classes with me. It is all about spreading the joy of building and making something completely new from a pile of wood. And it is exciting to see the same deep satisfaction and feeling of accomplishment in others as they gain confidence and competence! Join me at my shop and other locations and learn, grow, and celebrate small boats!
Never stop learning, strive for perfection but always have fun doing it!
I’d love to talk with you if you have any questions about any of these classes or individualized workshops

“Clint Chase was one of the absolute best instructors I’ve had here in my 17 years of taking courses at the school”
